Learn from qualified tutors at a time that fits your schedule.
It all started when a British teacher moved to Geneva and discovered that international school students needed dedicated, professional tutors who understood their needs to help them succeed.
Soon he was overstretched and oversubscribed and had to find new talented teachers to help.
Working with the best teachers is still the magic ingredient today and TutorsPlus continues to be run by parents and teachers who understand international schools like no one else.
Since 2006 TutorsPlus has helped thousands of students improve academically, get ahead, and back on track. Many parents say that TutorsPlus has helped keep their sanity too.
In addition to residential placements, we offer expert tutoring across all subjects and learning needs — including online, in-person, and special education support.
A residential tutor works onsite, typically at your home or holiday location to provide intensive, immersive academic support. Unlike traditional tutoring, sessions often span multiple hours per day and can cover several subjects. This approach allows for a highly adaptive schedule, integrating tutoring seamlessly into a student’s daily routine.
Residential tutors at TutorsPlus cover all academic areas and levels, including Maths, Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Combined Science), English, Foreign Languages, History, Economics, and exam preparation (IGCSE, A‑Level, IB, SAT, etc.). We tailor the subject mix to suit your student’s goals and daily academic workload, while ensuring lessons fit in with the individual needs of your family.
Residential tutoring offers significant advantages: consistent daily support, deep subject immersion, and integrated study habits, all at the times and locations which suit you best. Whether you want to take your tutor to your Chalet in the Alps or to the coast, our tutors fit into your plans. Students benefit from ongoing reinforcement of concepts, on-the-spot help, and tailored revision sessions that align seamlessly with your family’s requirements. Having an experienced professional tutor on hand whenever your family needs them.
TutorsPlus partners with families around the world, boarding houses, and student residences to ensure sessions are delivered in a safe, convenient environment, whether at home or on campus.
Residential tutors work closely with families and schools to create a balanced daily schedule. Sessions can include evening homework review, weekend exam preparation, or dedicated project work. The goal is to provide structured academic support without overloading the student’s day, and work around your family’s priorities.
Yes. Many families opt for multi subject tutoring, allowing a single tutor to handle several academic areas in one session. This creates consistency in teaching style and better oversight of overall academic progress. In some cases, tutors can support siblings together, which can be efficient and convenient.
Absolutely. All our residential tutors are highly qualified, DBS-checked, and professionally vetted. Many are licensed Teachers, experienced Examiners, and hold graduate degrees. They’ve also been trained in child safety, cultural awareness, and privacy protocols to ensure a secure and supportive learning environment.
Placements range from short-term arrangements, for exam preparation or transitional support, to long-term residencies spanning an academic term or full year. The length depends on your child’s needs, timetable, and goals. We work with you to design a schedule that delivers maximum benefit for your family.
After you get in touch, our team consults with you to understand your priorities, such as academic goals, personality match, subject matter expertise, and availability. We then recommend a tutor whose skills and teaching style align with your needs. Trial sessions are arranged to ensure a successful pairing.
To begin, reach out via our website or phone to schedule an initial consultation. We’ll discuss your student’s academic profile, residence setting, and desired outcomes. Afterwards, we’ll match you with a suitable residential tutor and arrange a trial session, which can be followed by a customised tuition plan.
Our tutors are teachers and examiners, with years of classroom experience. If you are not 100% satisfied, let us know, and can have a free trial with a new tutor.
Our Education Advisors are available throughout your time tutoring with us for any questions, help, or assistance you need.
